Yes, I'm happy to take those. I know some maintainers prefer not to take
non-functional changes as they make git blame less immediately useful (for
example), but I prefer for existing code to be compliant with CodingStyle, or it
tends to spread through new patches such as this one for the sake of internal
consistency.

So yes, I'd gladly take a whitespace cleanup patch. Thanks for offering.

Thanks,
